I just don't get it I guess...why not a hybrid? A small four cycle powering a generator, that either charges up the batteries, runs the electric motor directly, or bypasses both and is the power unit.

I'm building a beach-going wheelchair based on the above powertrain.
Should be a fun project. Hydrastatic transmission on each rear wheel...etc.etc.

Over 300 lbs for an electric motorcycle isn't using available technology or design right. Especially one with such limited range (most likely because of the excessive weight). And at over seven thousand dollars is a real rip off.

The ones who want to be ungodly rich by serving a world market ripe for this innovation. I dunno when we'll see the leap, but there's so much money to be made from it that thousands of bright engineers around the world are racing to bring it to market.

You don't understand, Mr. Duke. Dr. Seruzawa is a leading physicist, engaged in battery theory and development at MIT. He knows everything there is to know about batteries, and if he says there will never be batteries that work in an electric bike, you can take that to the bank. Brammo, Zero, and the rest of them might just as well give up now.

Brammo's zero-emission bike is delivering on the promise of being a real motorcycle while offering a deep hue of environmentally-friendly greenness.

Jeff, I'm a proponent of electric motorcycles, and look forward to the day when they're available as a serious alternative to gas bike. But I have to wonder if you're a bit premature with catagorizing the Brammo as a "real motorcycle." I saw a Zero bike next to the Brammo in one of the photos, did you get to ride both? Frankly the Brammo looks a lot like the Zero, which, in my opinion after riding one, is more electric bicycle than electric motorcycle.

Comments notwithstanding, a great article, and thanks for keeping the E-Bike information flowing!
